Mr. Lopez has 238 silver coins in his coin collection. The actual weight of the real silver in each coin is 0.85 ounce. How many
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

202.3 ounces of real silver

Step-by-step explanation:

Another example would be like pizza. If there are 6 slices of pizza in each box, then 2 boxes of pizza would have 6 + 6 slices = 12 slices. It is 6 slices each * 2 boxes = 12 slices total. The same applies to the coin situation, for every additional coin, multiply 0.85 by the number of coins to get the total weight of real silver.

If there are 238 silver coins, then you have 238 0.85 ounces of real silver. Multiplying 238 by 0.85 to simplify gives you 202.3 ounces of real silver.
